I even learned how to edit save files so I can make this character's parents the dead Lord of Castamere and his Tarbeck wife.Īnyway, I had this character launch a plot to assassinate lord Tywin as revenge.
I used console commands to give him the sword Red Rain so as to pretend he got it back, and to give him a bunch of other traits to replicate the personality of someone who lost his whole family. One time I started a game as a original-character survivor of the Reyne Massacre, holding a county in the Stormlands (The Weeping Tower, to be specific ). If you want to create an original character for role playing that console commands are a must. Or have Robb become a craven who only leads from the rear. If I want Dany to become a lunatic as she tries to take the throne I can do that easily. Or better yet, to change your character as the game goes on. You get some choice, but it's not like the game lets you choose the exact traits you want in your character.
It just helps to develop the character you want to play as.
